Neighbours

Like the raindrops, they come around.
Like the dewfall, they caress and touch the air.
And like the leaves on the tree, they shake & wave.
They are ever-present in our many spaces.
And yet, they are essentially our neighbours.

Our ecology is enhanced with their presence.
Our habitat is blessed with their personalities.
Our encounters in various life events enhance our experiences with these neighbours.
The connections in our relationship and communities are even exemplified by their actions.
There may be genuine reasons to exchange pleasantries or other courtesies in our engagements.
There may be interesting reservations in the revelations of some reflective reviews in our relationships,
However, in these reasonable counts of our responsibility and resourcefulness, we can never ignore our neighbours.

That we are interconnected individuals,
And that no man is an island or stands alone,
We have a duty to respect & appreciate our neighbours,
Even as we handle the low moments of mischievous overtures.

We have a great responsibility to peacefully coexist with our neighbours because we affect each other.
And in utilizing the expertise and resources of our neighbours (human beings, other animals, the trees and water bodies, and all that enhances our livelihoods), we must approach it with care.

May your day be blessed.
Good morning my Neighbour.
TGIF.
